   So Andy’s a ‘The Specials’ fan! Hmmm!

   I used to think that way. But then I thought, “Who cares?” If that’s what they need to make living rough on the street bearable, then so be it. Just give, without conditions, or judgement.

   That’s what we do, too.

   We looked up the film, and it’s delightful! On YouTube it’s found at https://youtu.be/4O8VE4qB8-s.

   I know it’s a past strip, but this sequence is just as relevant today. Those who donate blood and/or plasma are true heroes.

   I completely agree with you, Merrie Soltis. I’m also adopted – from 3 weeks of age – and this has always ticked me off. And especially in these days, when there are so many blended families, step-families, etc. Why is telling someone they’re adopted a terrible thing? It’s pretty cool, actually.

   Thanks for the info. I had no idea what the punchline was about!

   I played for the wedding of a friend’s Mom. She was 91, her husband was a younger man – only 87. They had 4 very happy years together until she passed. It was wonderful to see them both so happy. (But the ‘wedding’ was the ceremony only; they weren’t ‘legally’ married because they would have received less. And this is in Canada.)

    merrie7137 – I agree completely. Both my brother and I were adopted, and I’ve never been able to figure out why it’s supposed to be such a terrible thing. I realize that in the past they tried to ‘match’ children to the adoptive parents because it was often kept a secret, but why? Today, when there are so many blended families, why on earth do people pass it out as an insult? Surely we’re past all this . . .
